Factors Influencing Duration

Location of the tendinitis, its severity, the individual’s ability to control aggravating activities, treatment required, and any complications can all potentially affect the duration of disability.

Differences may exist between the duration tables and the reference graphs. Duration tables provide expected recovery periods based on the type of work performed by the individual. The reference graphs reflect the actual experience of many individuals across the spectrum of physical conditions, in a variety of industries, and with varying levels of case management. Selected graphs combine multiple codes based on similar means and medians.
